ObjectivesAfter completing this lecture, you should be able to:
Identify the sources of evidence for primary questions Develop a good search strategy and conduct an
efficient PubMed search using MeSH database Find the highest levels of evidence using PubMed
Clinical Queries and Evidence-Based filters Find evidence using Cochrane, PEDro, CINAHL, TRIP Find evidence-based practice guideline (National
Guideline Clearinghouse)
3
Evidence-Based Medicine The process of systematically finding, appraising, and
using contemporaneous research findings as the basis for clinical decision.
Formulate a clinical question Literature search Evaluate the evidence Implement findings in clinical practice

6
Developing Search Strategies Formulate a well-built clinical question (PICO). Break your question into multiple concepts. Locate the appropriate MeSH (indexed term) for
each concept. Run the search using AND, OR, NOT Apply limit options (date, language, age,
publication type, gender), major headings and subheadings
Modify your search strategies and rerun your search.
7
Boolean Operators (upper case)
ANDCombine different concepts to narrow your search. aged AND women aged women
ORBroaden your search to include similar concepts.HIV OR AIDS AIDS patients
NOTExclude a concept from your search.AIDS NOT hearing aids AIDS patients
8
Searching PubMed: MeSH Terms
Using the MeSH Database to locate MeSH terms; using MeSH terms to increase the precision of your search results
9
When to use Keyword search? New studies not yet indexed
e.g. PubMed – in process PubMed – as supplied by publisher
Do a keyword search and limit search results for the past few months.

PubMed: Clinical Queries Finding the highest levels of evidence:
systematic reviews and meta-analyses faster and easier
Providing further analysis of randomized controlled trials
Graft choice in ACL reconstruction
11
Setting up Evidence-Based Filters Using my NCBI
Filters help sort search results faster Set up EB filters for systematic reviews,
meta-analyses, RCTs, practice guidelines
12
Set Up EB Filters Using My NCBI Register My NCBI.
Setting up filters for systematic reviews, RCT, meta-analysis, practice guideline and outcomes assessment
Select ‘Filters’ in the far left menu, and then select PubMed.
Select ‘Browse’ to choose specific filters or select ‘Search’ to enter a specific filter.
For example: Select “Search” to look up ‘systematic reviews’. Select Systematic reviews under the matchingfilters list and then check the ‘Add’ box to automatically add systematic reviews as one of your filters.
Go back to ‘Search’ and repeat this with ‘meta-analysis”, “randomized controlled trial”, “practice guideline” and “outcomes assessment.”

Cochrane Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects
(DARE) Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials

PEDro Physiotherapy evidence-based database,
produced by the Centre for Evidence-Based Phsiotherapy in Australia
Covers RCTs, systematic reviews, clinical practice guidelines in physiotherapy
Trials rated for quality
16
TRIP Searches over 75 sites of high quality
medical information Provides you direct, hyperlinked access to
the evidence-based material on the web as well as articles from premier online journals such as BMJ, JAMA, NEJM and the Lancet
17
CINAHL 55% of overlap with MEDLINE Indexes journal articles, books, book chapters,
dissertations, AV materials, conference proceedings
Controlled vocabulary/thesaurus:Nursing headings
Special Interest: Evidence-Based Practice
18
Evidence-Based Practice Guidelines
National Guidelines Clearinghousehttp://www.guideline.gov/

Exercises Formulate a clinical question.
Effectiveness of strength training for stroke patients
Graft choice in ACL reconstruction Effectiveness of education in school
children with low back pain Heat or cold for low back pain
